Join Us Today! For the CU Ride in Tyler, Texas

Thursday, October 15, 2015 6:55 AM

We're in the home stretch. Three CU Ride events remain on the CU Ride Motorcycle Tour. Today, it's Tyler, Texas, and you can still be a part of it! This will be an especially symbolic ride because today is a special day for credit unions—International Credit Union Day.

So, round up your colleagues and join us at Kelly Community FCU today at 3:00 p.m., when participants will ride to Trinity Mother Frances Hospital to deliver a treasure trove of stuffed dogs—and some credit union encouragement—to suffering children.

You don't have to ride a motorcycle to participate; you can drive your own vehicle or ride in a vehicle wrapped with your credit union's logo. The goal is to present a united front when we visit each CU Ride destination.

Yesterday, two CU Ride events took place, one in Oklahoma City and the other in Tulsa. They were very successful rides, by all accounts.

Participants in Oklahoma City rode from the Credit Union House to Oklahoma Children's Hospital, where they delivered 150 Credit Unions Care stuffed dogs, toured the facility, heard from a CMN ambassador, and learned how credit union efforts through Credit Unions for Kids is making a difference every day in countless lives.

In Tulsa, participants were joined by Oklahoma State Senator Dan Newberry (R-Tulsa), chair of the Senate Committee on Business and Commerce and vice president of real estate operations for TTCU. Participants rode from Oklahoma Central Credit Union to the Children's Hospital of Saint Francis. The local NBC affiliate in Tulsa provided media coverage.

After today, there are only two rides left. Please come out and join us! If you can't, you can still help by selling the Credit Unions Care paper dogs in your credit unions and/or making a donation to the campaign to help us reach our goal of $110,000 to benefit Children's Medical Network hospitals.
